ROSWELL, Georgia, January 5, 2004 – Applied Systems Intelligence, Inc., announced today that it has been selected as a key member of a team led by The Boeing Company’s Helicopter Division in Mesa, AZ (NYSE:BA) to fulfill a $90+ million contract to develop the Warfighter Machine Interface (WMI) component for the U.S. Army's Future Combat Systems (FCS) program. ASI’s portion of the contract will exceed $17M with the work continuing through 2009. The Boeing WMI Team also includes SA Technologies of Marietta, GA, and Boeing Autometric of Springfield, VA.
The FCS program is the driving concept behind the Army's transformational and network-centric warfare efforts. Supporting rapid deployment, autonomous troops and an accelerated battle tempo, this program will prepare the Army for anticipated changes in the conduct of warfare beyond 2012. WMI is part of a Battle Command and Control (C2) system that will give warfighters a complete, integrated battlefield picture – that is, one view of all troops and platforms. This new capability will provide FCS personnel an intelligent user interface tailored to their display and information needs.
Dr. Norman Geddes, ASI’s CEO, said, “ASI is proud that Boeing has shown its confidence in ASI for this important program and we look forward to providing our technology to the FCS WMI Team.”
